Lennox Lewis explains why Joshua didn’t destroy Paul in the opening rounds

Former undisputed world heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis I appreciated the victory Anthony Joshua In the fight against Jake Paul. According to the legendary Briton, form and experience played an important role in the fight.

“It was obvious Anthony hadn’t been in the ring for 15 months. It took him a while, a few rounds, to get into the fight and feel the rhythm, but then he started throwing punches. He did his job the way he was supposed to do it.”

He had an opponent who moved a lot, so Anthony had to chase him. It was all about physical fitness, after all: Paul looked unprepared, especially for such a big heavyweight. After a few rounds you could see he was just standing there waiting to get shot,” Lewis said.

UFC commentator Joe Rogan: “Jake Paul took a terrible hit from Joshua, it could end badly”

UFC commentator Joe Rogan advised boxer-blogger Jake Paul to no longer fight with opponents of the level of former world champion Anthony Joshua.

On Friday, Paul lost to Joshua in the sixth round by knockout at a tournament in Miami. After the fight, the blogger was hospitalized with a broken jaw.

– I believe that a person can withstand a certain number of blows in the ring without serious consequences. Joshua’s knockout blow was terrible and equal to ten normal strong blows. Jake Paul took a lot of damage.

He shouldn’t continue like this for long because he’ll have to pay for it and it’s not worth it. Serious brain disorders lead to depression, which leads you to addiction. Many become gambling addicts, drug addicts, and alcoholics after finishing their boxing career. “Many people act hastily,” Rogan said on social networks.

Former WBA, WBO, IBF heavyweight champion, 2012 Olympic champion Joshua has 29 wins and four losses. Paul won 12 victories and suffered two defeats in the professional ring.
